Critics Review
‘Guiding us through the many workshops of socio-legal researchers who use systems theory, Ralf Rogowski brilliantly demonstrates the main potentials of theories: to establish improbable connections between studies of the most diverse domains of social reality, producing plural overviews, and, in multiple ways, to force thought to evolve, empowering imagination.’ – Pierre Guibentif, Iscte – University Institute of Lisbon, Portugal
‘This Research Handbook is more than just a valuable addition to socio-legal scholarship: it demonstrates the ambit of systems theory to law, and what can now, with this volume, be understood as the developed discipline of systems theory in its assessment of the operation of law and laws in modern society.’ – Richard Nobles, Queen Mary University of London, UK
